  • #11958 Ask Me Anything - Karlo Broussard

    Questions Covered:

    • 05:21 – How does the Church establish the dogma of the Immaculate Conception with so much of the Early Church not clearly defining it and even St. Thomas Aquinas being contrary to it? 
    • 14:35 – If a person dies and is cremated, can the remains be held in a sacred space or altar in a home? 
    • 18:16 – If the Jews are the chosen people, why not convert to Judaism?   
    • 22:44 – Is scripture a higher authority than tradition? 
    • 28:54 – I heard that fulfilling the conditions for an indulgence results in someone’s soul going to heaven. Is that true? Do I still need to pray for them? 
    • 32:12 – Is it true that once you confess your sins, they won’t be revealed on judgment day 
    • 36:00 – Vatican 2 states that anyone baptized validly is Christian and called brothers to those in the Catholic Church. Is this objective or subjective especially when compared to previous documents of the Church? 
    • 43:30 – Would a woman have to get a tubal ligation reversed to be in line with the Church? 
    • 44:12 – Why does Mary need to be without original sin to be able to say yes or no to God? 
    • 46:05 – My question is regarding latria/dulia and the distinction. Specifically the claim that in a religious context they are never separated or approved of for anyone other than God. the claim I heard also mentioned that this is because they come from the same root word in Hebrew. 
    • 50:04 – To what extent does the Church say that intrusive thoughts can be sinful? 
    • 51:44 – Are they referring to chattel slavery in Deut. 20:10-14?

      • 14:03 – If saints are confirmed to be in heaven, is there any barrier to the Church canonizing non-Catholics who live good holy lives?
      • 17:12 – Was John the Baptist born without original sin?
      • 19:40 – If someone wants to join the Church it seems like they have to do so much unnecessary waiting to go through the RCIA process. Any thoughts on that?
      • 24:21 – How is there room in heaven for us and the angels if God is infinite?
      • 30:02 – Considering how the Orthodox don’t believe in the Immaculate Conception, does that mean they’re not saved?
      • ??:?? – How do we reconcile Purgatory with the last judgment? It seems unfair for people who live till the last judgment and still have sins on their soul to be treated differently than those who died earlier and were purified.
      • 42:25 – Is it hard for us to understand that we can go to hell for things like missing mass because we are not looking at it from God’s perspective?
      • 47:40 – Do I have to believe something that a saint, like St. Thomas Aquinas, said?
